It’s the Hollywood playbook now. Just take an established character and change the race, gender, or sexual orientation. I don’t mind that as long as the straight white man be on the receiving end of it every now and then. So a white dude as Blade or Storm would do.


I'd rather they create a new character loosely related to the original.

Like a black or female Bond - should be the original's child. Not exactly a stretch that such a person would exist.

Didn’t CW already have a Lex Luther? How do they explain that one? Multiverse?

You have to wonder how many Bond baby's are out there. dude has been raw dogging it for like 70 years now! There has to be a Bond in nearly every country in the world.

Or what they did in Lupin. Works just fine.

I mean, you got the first Lex Luthor who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a comic book, man.

The better version for a black spinoff would be Felix Leiter. Would love to see the stories from his perspective. Plus he would be more of an American Bond.

He will most likely have a white girlfriend.

Or a white boyfriend. But I doubt they do that.

All shows have to reflect real life now. 1/2 of couples must be interracial

55% of the people have to be gay.

Well, he’s a fictional character; so, he can look however creators like.

I hate to shock anybody, but when I was a kid, Superman was half-Japanese:
